A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail
Hey! I'd be glad if anyone clarified this little thing for me... I've checked my shelves and found that I have a book with Trains on its cover page. Would that work for "Take a Road Trip Day"? Trains are not vehicles of the road but still of the land so I was wondering if I could choose that book. I don't have other unread books with vehicles on them except this, hence asking! Thanks in advance.
I say go for it, Sanju! I think any form of transportation with an engine will work.
hey can I join now? I know I'm super late but I just got out of my slump and I think it'll be fun to get back to reading. Lemme know if I can join
Sure, Lisa! The month's not over yet. :)
